Having started dancing later in life, William Bercini believes there is a dancer inside of every
one of us. He began his dance career with C&W couples dancing, competing on the UCWDC circuit. Eventually,
William won the Pro-Am World Championships. Moving onto ballroom dance, he became versed in all the dances in the American
syllabus. As both a competitive and exhibition dancer William can be a bit of a ham! As an instructor, William
brings his enthusiasm into the classroom. He believes dancing, first and foremost, should be FUN – regardless
if your goal is Dancing with the Stars, or dancing with your sweetheart
